| Thanksgiving dinner - What will you make? We usually have a large stuffed Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean casserole, rolls, sweet potatoes, fruit salad, pies and cakes, just the traditional stuff. I don't LOVE roasted turkey, but I love the stuffing out of it. Do you stick with traditional thanksgiving dinners, or go unconventional?

| My family does the traditional stuffed turkey but whats different is we have meat stuffing. Its a french thing. Its stuffing made from hamburger and ground pork with potatoes and bell seasoning(or cinnamon) and cloves in it. Its easy to make and delicious. We stuff the turkey with that and make pies with it, also just eat it on the side as stuffing. We also have mashed potatoes, butternet squash, green beans or peas, gravy and the best part is the condiment tray with green & black olives, pickles and cranberry sauce haha. Ohhh but the best part... chocolate cream pie, pecan pie, pumpkin cream pie mmmmm

| We've done the traditional thanksgiving every year. We'd have turkey, ham (because my FIL and I don't like turkey), green bean casserole, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, yams, and etc. This year we're having a mexican dinner. My MIL is making taco's. My BIL is making enchiladas and I'm making refried beans, mexican rice.

Oh fun, a Thanksgiving Fiesta! Mexican is by far my favorite ethnic food, hands down! We have some version of tacos at least once a week!

| We decided on Ham this year. We just seem to like it better, plus i doesn't have a bunch of bones to pick clean later. Plus the usual: green bean casserole, potatoes, Sweet 'tatoes, rolls, etc. |
